Live crashing when clicking on newly created clips

gavspav · July 16, 2019, 3:46pm

I’ve had Live crash a few times on me when clicking on a movie file created with econvert and ecomper.
Just went to drag the new file into my Live set and the whole thing crashes - Ebosuite is fine.
Here is the first part of the crash report. I hate it when people copy and paste crash reports into forum posts.
Therefore I hate myself.

Hi Gavspav, Don’t hate yourself , but it’s better to mail the crash reports to contact@ebosuite.com Can you also send a file that makes Ableton crash? Thanks!

HI Gaspav,

Thanks for the report. A few questions:

Does it happen while you are still dragging, or conclude the dragging? or later when you select the clip where you dragged it?
Can you use the videofile normally after the crash? or does it always lead to new crashes?
So, if I understand it correctly the same situation leads sometimes to a crash and sometimes it doesn’t?

Cheers
Timo
